Hi all
I have made a cupboard sort-of-thing to go below a downstairs WC basin and hide piping etc. In a moment of madness, I butted up the skirting surround at the bottom of this cupboard rather than mitering the external corners. As a result, when I try to paint the end grain, the moister in the paint seems to lift the grain and results in a less-than-satisfactory finish (I'm using water based paint which may aggravate the situation). So how do I proceed?: Keep applying primer and sanding till it gets the message Use a different type of paint Apply a thin coat of filler, sand and re-prime
None of the above!
Any suggestions gratefully received
Phil
